18 Apr 2026 - Prime Minister Keir Starmer and First Sea Lord, General Sir Gwyn Jenkins KCB OBE ADC looking at a Vanguard Class Submarine. The Prime Minister and Defence Secretary have welcomed Royal Navy submariners home following the completion of the UK's latest nuclear deterrent patrol. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Defence Secretary John Healey MP joined the First Sea Lord, and Chief of Defence Nuclear on the Clyde to welcome home the Vanguard-class submarine as it returned from patrol. The submarine was deployed on Operation Relentless, the UK's Continuous At Sea Deterrent (CASD), which has ensured at least one nuclear-armed ballistic missile submarine has been on patrol, undetected, every minute of every day since April 1969. After meeting submariners onboard, the submarine, the Prime Minister and Defence Secretary were hosted by the First Sea Lord at HM Naval Base Clyde where they met personnel from 43 Commando who help protect the base and submarines. The Prime Minister, Defence Secretary and First Sea Lord also spent time with submariners and their families gathered at the base for a welcome home event organised by Naval Base staff and the Naval Service Family and People Support (NSFPS) team.
